I have been having issues specifying the path (I have two files: comments.frm and db.opt in the following folder: C:\xampp\mysql\data\feedback)... I am using XAMPP and mySQL. I am not sure why I am having an error? Please, take a look this part of my code:

public void readDataBase() throws Exception {
try {
// This will load the MySQL driver, each DB has its own driver
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
// Setup the connection with the DB
connect = DriverManager
.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost//feedback"
+ "user=root&password=1234");
